Richard Marquis has an encyclopaedic collection of ‘ordinary’ things in his studio to inspire his whimsical, witty and ever-evolving body of work. In his oeuvre, simple forms belie complex techniques and sentimental stories; the Frosty series, for example, charts the annual holiday gifting tradition he shared with his wife – assemblage artist Johanna Nitzke Marquis – where they would create snow people with varying features and temperaments, which he would then gift to her once complete.

Meet the Maker:
Richard Marquis
Glassblowing extraordinaire Richard Marquis has an extremely prolific archive, including several hundred snowmen sculptures from his annual Frosty series. During the late 60s, he undertook a fellowship in Murano with Venini, where he picked up new techniques – the most prominent being the murrine cane, a learning he brought back to the States and consistently applied to his work moving forward.
The Artist Studio is an exclusive curation of collectible artworks from global artists, specially selected by New York-based design gallery R & Company. Come visit us by appointment only at 82 Franklin Street Gallery in New York from October 31-December 21, 2024.
